Edit i have find 2 machines now V56 & V39. I may looking for WC-42t & V81d in future
Hi Everyone

I am looking for a project roundtop vendo embossed coke machine with missing compressor.

Because we would  like to repair rust in Sweden, I'm looking for something that need some sheet metal-work. And it's not legal to import anything containing freon 12 (even if many have done it) and we use 230 volts, so that's the reason I'm looking for a machine without compressor or the cooling-unit.

Vendo 81 b,c and d    Vendo 110  Vendo 56  if i find one of this tree I'm also interested to buy a vendo 83, vendo 39 or Westinghouse wc-42t in the same bargain/shipping.

If anyone are willing to sell and help me with transport to a seaport ? Feel free to pm me what you have and price. I think this is for sellers who live not so far away from a seaport.

I'm also looking for an empty cabinet and the main-door for a (rt) v56

Here is a 56 that needs some work :biggrin: not sure about the price.

I saw that machine,  better pick it up from the bottom, or you might end up leaving the compressor section behind!

I am willing to weld in a new beltline section And i wish the price was a little bit lower.
The problem is it's located far away from a seaport. And i rather make a deal with someone from here than an unknown craighlist anouncer!

But anyhow thanks to Blind1962 for the link.

I search "vendo 56" and other combinations often on ad hunt'r "all craiglist" but i haven't see this.
Does anyone know a better way to search all craiglist?

I also find this http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/clt/3647518966.html (http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/clt/3647518966.html)

Anyone here (SMCmember) live near tampa bay florida and need the cooling unit and a little compensation for leave the cabinet to a shipping company ?
Of course i pay for the cabinet. but the seller seems to dream about big money for this "COMPLETELY ORIGINAL" vendo so it would trust more to someone here.
I have not give the seller an offer yet.

Why would you even consider that... Missing loads. Stay well clear.

I have a squaretop with working 230volt compressor so i looking for an empty roundtop

however the seller thinks it's a "easy projekt"  :Oo:

That machine is literally an "empty roundtop".  It is missing the bottlestack, shelves, coin door, coin mech, crank handle, just to name a few.  I  think its great you want to try to find a 56 to ship, but I would make sure you get one that really is complete.  If there are none of these machines in Sweden, then I am sure there are no spare parts floating around either.  Here's a pic of the 56 interior.  I realize you want to redo the compressor, but other than that, you should look for a machine that has everything else in place.  Good luck in the hunt!  Patience is the key.

Christian,
You can try  http://www.searchtempest.com/  for searching craig's all of craigs list, just put in the zip code of whatever coast your wanting to ship from and it will search out from there. Wish you all the luck in finding a keeper.

Tanks for good luck.
and i think sooner or later i realize that you have right. it's cheaper to buy a complete one.
But if someone have a complete machine (w-42) and an empty v56 it would be a deal because i already bought coindoor and some stuff to convert my square 56 to roundtop. so if i had the cabinet i don't need do so much welding :down:

Thanks for the tip !  it works really good

Lloyd@ coinopwarehouse ships  regularly  to Europe. Occasionally he does land a soda machine. i'd feel more secure working with a dealer than  a Craigslist seller
